Default CAGS install question??

Where are the wires located? Are they under the car or in the car at the shifter? I jacked my 2003 Z06 up and got under it and could not see any visible wires anywhere in the area of the trans?? I sure hope I don't have to start ripping my car apart to get to this white connector!

Just checking. You do know that the trans is in the back of the car, Right? Drivers side just forward of the rear differential.

Funny. I just jacked my car up today, to install my 1-4 eliminator, and the reason I signed on is because I, too, couldn't find the *^$*) wiring. I always assumed it was in the rear, next to the transaxle, but this jerk at the Corvette store where I bought it convinced me the trans was in the front. So, I jacked it up from the front. This forum is so right-ON with all the help it offers!
Lemme make a shout-out to Selman Chevrolet for anyone in Orange County that needs a dealer they can trust. My ZO6 was rear-ended, and I was heart-broken. But they returned it to a pristine condition, and even rubbed it out t'boot. Really nice, friendly people there.
